Do Not Pay
Do Not Pay (DNP) is the no-cost robust analytics tool which helps federal agencies detect and prevent improper payments made to vendors, grantees, loan recipients, and beneficiaries.
Agencies can check multiple data sources in order to make payment eligibility decisions.
How Does Do Not Pay Work?
Agencies use a secure online interface to check various data sources to verify eligibility of a vendor, grantee, loan recipient, or beneficiary to receive federal payments. To get all the details, watch the short video. NOTE: Payment Integration only checks against death data sources.
